Need to toughen kid up

My kids now 4 and hes not showing any interest in normal sports like football/basketball/hockey/martial arts.. I find he always wants to draw or read inside and when I initiate toughen up style wrestling games with him he isnt interested. Further he has not yet got the taste for meat much and prefers vegetables almost every meal.

I'm thinking this kid needs some toughening up as I cant have him growing up to be such a sissy. Any advice on best drills/routines that can work to get your kid back on the straight and narrow?

  • Your child will be who he is if he prefers reading to playing sport  that doesn't make him a sissy.

  • Every kid has their interests. Maybe he hasn't been exposed to such sports so far. Personally I find nothing dubious in a 4 year old boy wanting to read and write instead of playing football.
